I think that's right. Probably the most widely read bits of literature will be scriptures and hagiographies (the Abiding Book may well be the most widely disseminated bit of literature in Glorantha). However, I can certainly see the Loskalmi having romances like Malory (or more likely like Chretian de Troyes and Guillaume de Lorris).
Inside the Lunar Empire, I suspect there is a wide range of literatures - holy texts, philosophical works, poetry, histories and devotional works - with a wide range of styles and influences. I think that the last century might well be a Lunar "Golden Age" like that of Classical Islam - so who are the Lunar versions of Avicenna and Averroes?
